*looks at websites* Literally no one knows how to make breakfast burritos properly.
@indi Okay now I'm curious what you consider the ideal of a breakfast burrito.
@indi I know my answer but it's probably a bad one :p
@starkatt I want to hear yours now. ^.^
@indi Okay so I'm gonna preface this by saying that chorizo is absolutely *correct* but outside of my dietary constraints.
Egg, cheese, green chile, hashbrowns. Salt. Small and tightly wrapped enough so that you can eat it one-handed.
@indi In principle chunk potatoes is acceptable, but hashbrowns are definitely the superior technology.
@starkatt Yeah I think mine is basically derived from the Frontier and the NMT cafeteria. :)
@indi Y'know what I'm sad I can't get up here? Chile relleno.
@starkatt I mean you can, if you enjoy a poblano caked in breading. /s
@indi I've tried ordering it a couple times here, and yeah it's a one-way ticket to sadness.
@starkatt It is, in fairness, hard to make properly. I haven't met someone who's successfully home-cooked it. Our last attempt resulted in some pretty good green chile fritters, but. ;)
@indi Yeah it's some traditional sorcery or something.
@starkatt Maybe we should try again for Glowtide! (and default to fritters if needed) We will have carne adovada then at least, that's easy to make assuming one has time. And (vegetarian, unless one adds the carne) posole. :)
@indi I'm not actually a big fan of posole!
But yeah, I'm down.
I was just about to ask you to convince me to make another batch of green chile mac and cheese for bandaza. Not a lot of heat with this batch of chile, but the flavor is there.
@indi (I also added a bit of cayenne, red chile powder, and paprika to plus it up a bit)
@starkatt Do it do it do it! Dooooo it.
I actually make weird posole, that results from trying to make it interesting while still being vegan. Basically just the hominy, simmered with a spice blend that's mainly epazote, cumin, and cinnamon.
@indi well I guess I gotta go shopping today then :)
@indi Hm, 'cept it would use all of our remaining supply of green chile. Now I gotta think about it...
@starkatt An understandable concern!
@starkatt I have this distinct memory of one of my rare mornings up in time for breakfast (it was an exam day) and just seeing them pour the eggs over everything else on the cook surface and going "YES. My kind of cooking"
@indi Honestly I think I've kinda imprinted on the Frontier breakfast burrito from back in Albuquerque.
When I'm camping or whatever I'll often omit the potatoes and just use salsa from a jar and still call it a breakfast burrito, but if someone sold me that I'd be pretty unhappy.
